Boy riding bubble realizes what he's on, asks for more air

I can’t help getting flashbacks to Webvan whenever I read about trillions being spent on data centres.

He didn’t just “realize” anything, he’s known it all along. Come on now, he’s just doing his job.

I wouldn’t put it past Altman to intentionally nerf GPT5 to create a negative sentiment cascade that artificially pops the bubble, then right at the correct (for OpenAI) moment, reveals their actual generational leap. The bubble in the meantime would cause an evolutionary strain that would shutter many competitors and create a rich talent environment.
